Urban Homestead's Outreach Programs & Services
The goal of the Urban Homestead project is to be a real-life working model and to share the skills, motivation and ideas behind that lifestyle with fellow travelers by offering a wide range of events, classes in the Urban Homesteading lifestyle and sustainability, film screenings, lectures, workshops and more.
We design our events not only as an opportunity to learn, but also as an occasion to build a community network of like-minded people who can inspire and support one another in their quest for sustainable choices and a simpler way of living.
Urban Homestead® workshops
The 10 elements of the Urban Homesteading lifestyle, gardening and seed diversity, as well as broader environmental issues.
Homegrown community
We reach out to the community by hosting film screenings, workshops and get-togethers on our Urban Homestead.
Exhibits at eco-festivals and events
As our schedule and circumstances allow, we enjoy the opportunity to meet like-minded folk and talk about our journey of urban homesteading. We have participated in many community events, Earth Day festivals, conferences, and school environmental fairs.
Our informative and colorful exhibits on urban homesteading, biodiesel production and more have been seen by thousands -- from young children to adults.
Invite our "citified" farm animals
Invite the Urban Homestead's personable, trained, and gentle "citified" farm animals to your school, event, fundraiser, etc. Our hand-raised ducks, chickens, and leash-trained miniature goats are great for education use, childrens'' outings or for "Heifer International ®" fundraisers.
